Game of Thrones has got yet another accolade – if you can call it that – as the HBO mega-hit takes the title of most illegally downloaded show of 2016. Catchy, huh?

According to Torrent Freak, Game of Thrones comes in at the top of the list for the fifth year in a row.

The show received roughly the same amount as torrents as in 2015 (350,000 per episode), although it is pointed out that lots of people have switched from torrents to streaming, so the real number is probably even higher.

Still in second place was The Walking Dead, followed by HBO newcomer WestWorld as the third most pirated show of the year.

Superhero shows The Flash and Arrow were at four and five, followed by The Big Bang Theory at six.

The seventh most illegally watched show was Vikings, while Lucifer was at eight. Suits came in ninth place and, finally, The Grand Tour rounded out the top ten, according to these latest stats.

While The Grand Tour it might be the most watched show on Amazon Prime by a landslide, MUSO, who analysed the data for pirating of TV shows, now suggests that it might only be the most illegally watched show in the UK.

As for Game of Thrones, this title adds to its recent Digital Spy Reader Awards.
